    ok, just to tidy up this thread and for anyone with a similar problem.
    The front discs and pads were changed £135, it made no difference:mad: , the vauxhall dealer then said it was brake dust and they could blow it out but it would be back in a few days, but we should drive through some puddles and this would help ????, :mad: ,( these people are crazy)

    Well i had enough, and spent an hour on the internet and found out what the problem was. The brake pads have a small metal thinghy which touches the discs when the pads get down to a certain level, and it makes a whistling noise which is a audible warning to let you know the pads need changing.
    Hence, changed the rear pads for £40 and problem solved :j :j
    I now want to complain to vauxhall uk about the dealer but have yet to find a number
    Not ashamed to say ABBA are Great :j

    Would also complain to the garage about charging you for uncessary work
